Naev 0.11.0-beta.3

BY BOBBENS, ON DECEMBER 14TH, 2023

During playtesting 0.11.0-beta.2, we’ve found even more issues that have been fixed, including some hard crashes and some inconsistencies with weapon set behaviours. Additionally, lots more quality of life usability such as in range weapon sets only shooting when enemies are in arcs have also been added. We’re hoping this to be the last beta before the official release which should hit in a week or so. As always, please report any issues on this tracker, and feel free to join our Discord or Matrix chatrooms. Find out more about them here!

You can get the new version from any of the sources below:
